“Andante”

In 1913 Gunnar Asplund won a competition regarding an expansion of the Gothenburg City Hall, a project which he was involved with for nearly 25 years due to redesigns.

During the 21st century, BLOND BELYSNING was chosen to be part of the restauration of the "Asplund-extension".
During this period, luminaires designed by Gunnar Asplund was restored and manufactured after the originals.

This saw the beginning of the Icons collection, featuring several designs from Gunnar Asplunds most prominent works.

“Pocket in the House”

Nya Regionens Hus was the first of the large projects that form Gothenburg's new city district between Central Station and the Göta River.

Here, the heavily trafficked Götaleden is covered to create footpaths and cohesive blocks from the center down to Gullbergsvass.

The Västra Götaland region's new headquarters is the center of Gothenburg's largest urban transformation in modern times. A transformation that gives the city center a whole new look and content.

“Pocket in the House” is the restaurant housed in the building:
modern, transparent and accessible to everyone.

“Relight”

The rubber factory of Värnamo, Sweden, was once the towns largest employer but had after the shutdown in similar ways to the pressed glass been forgotten.
After several years of neglect the building itself had become somewhat of an eyesore to the inhabitants of Värnamo.
An idea was born, an idea to create a dynamic platform that would offer culture, education and entrepreneurial guidance.

Thus came the idea of ”Relight”, an art installation consisting of nearly 250 pcs. of old pressed glasses that no one found to be interesting.
The idea was instead to revitalize these lamp cups, embedding them with new content and meaning.
Together they would no longer be forgotten, but form a unity and a light sculpture in form of a chandelier in the foyer of Gummifabriken.

The chandelier measures some Ø225 cm and mixes simple, but at the same time refined, glasses which where meticulously placed and aligned depending on their different sizes, shapes, patterns and colours.
